BURST Sonic Toothbrush head cover

thingiverse

I picked up one of the BURST sonic toothbrushes as a low cost sonicare alternative. I am happy with it so far. I noticed that the replacement heads didn't come with a cover like the sonicare ones do. So instead of buying sonicare heads for $15 and just taking the plastic covers off of those, I decided to design and print my own. Fits well and leaves room for drying. Now I must say this, 3D printing leaves lots of nooks and crannies for bacteria to get nice and cozy in. I HIGHLY recommend you purchase ANTI Bacterial/Microbial PLA and you will have ZERO worries :) I purchased a brand called PUREMENT BNK which is Anti Microbial and it works ok for uses like this. The aluminum powder they add to the filament that helps kill bacteria makes the filament brittle (think bronzefill). But it prints good. You can find purement on amazon for ~$25 per 0.6kg. Another brand is XYZ Filament (they make davinci printers and some other ones, big company and their filament is good! I just was impatient so i went with the amazon purchase first because of free shipping and faster delivery). You can find it here: https://www.xyzprinting.com/en-US/material/antibacterial-pla?ref=steemhunt Copper3d supposedly has medical grade filaments but i cant find a place to buy so. Get what you can I suppose!
